Rem Dog speaks:“It’s a compliment. They don’t
quit. They’re not afraid to get their uniform dirty. You want to have that
reputation,” said Remy, himself a dirt dog in 1978 who stole 30 bases and
scored 78 runs during an All-Star season with Boston. “Daubach’s got a
Band-Aid across his nose. That’s a dirt dog. Nixon’s uniform is all dirty.
That’s a dirt dog.”

The “Curt’s Pitch
for ALS” program is a joint effort by Curt and Shonda Schilling, and The
ALS Association Mass Chapter to strike out Amyotrophic Lateral
Sclerosis, more commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease.

Curt and Shonda
will be contributing $25,000 to The ALS Association Massachusetts
Chapter, and they are asking fans to contribute as well. All proceeds
will benefit research and patient services for those in Massachusetts
affected by the disease. Program participants will receive different
incentive prizes based on the dollar amount per strikeout that they
pledge.
